A Dancing Problem

FADE IN:
INT. RAVEN'S SCHOOL -- AFTERNOON
Raven is at school and she sees a poster for a school dance. Eddie and Chelsea are there with her.
RAVEN
Wow! A dance! I know exactly who I want to ask me out!
EDDIE
What if he doesn't ask you out?
RAVEN
He probably is. I've had a crush on him for five years! But I don't want him to know that!
CHELSEA
So how will that make him ask you out?
RAVEN
Just watch.
Danny Lebowski, the guy Raven wants to ask her out, walks past Raven, Chelsea and Eddie.
RAVEN (CONT'D)
That's him!
EDDIE
Good luck.
(Whispering to Chelsea)
She'll need a lot of it!

Raven's Dad is extremely surprised about Raven's crush. Raven is standing talking to him. Cory is also in the room.
RAVEN'S DAD
What the heck?
RAVEN
I've had a crush on him for five years! But I don't want him to know that! Come on, Dad. I'm sure this will work.
RAVEN'S DAD
Good luck.
(Whispering to Cory)
She'll need a lot of it!

Hello Raven.

(Excitedly)
Hi.
DANNY LEBOWSKI
Eddie and Chelsea told me about you and I would like to ask you to come to the dance with me.
RAVEN
Yes!
DANNY LEBOWSKI
Okay then. I'll see you there!
Raven walks over to Chelsea and Eddie who were standing outside also.
RAVEN
I'm going to the dance with Danny. Yes!
Raven gets a vision.

DANNY LEBOWSKI
How long have you had a crush on me, Raven?
FADE TO:

RAVEN
Guys, I just had a vision that Danny asked how long I have had a crush on him!
EDDIE
(Whispers to Chelsea)
Now she really needs that luck!
RAVEN
What do I do now?
CHELSEA
Don't show up.
RAVEN
No! I really want to dance with Danny.
EDDIE
Okay then.
Eddie and Chelsea walk away.
RAVEN
(Says to herself)
I'll think about what I'm going to do.
FOUR
INT. RAVEN'S SCHOOL -- AFTERNOON
Ravens teacher hands a sheet to her that she did that day.
RAVEN'S TEACHER
That was the worst test score I've ever seen. Were you thinking about something else?
Raven gets sent to the principal's office.
INT. PRINCIPAL'S OFFICE -- MOMENTS LATER
The principal is sitting at his desk. Raven is sitting across from him.
PRINCIPAL
Your punishment is that you can't go to the dance tonight.
RAVEN
Yes!
PRINCIPAL
Well then you'll be forced to go the dance if you like the other punishment.
RAVEN
Darn it!
INT. RAVEN'S HOUSE KITCHEN-- LATER

RAVEN'S DAD
Your punishment is that you can't go to the dance tonight!
RAVEN
Yes!
RAVEN'S DAD
Well, if you like that punishment so much, you will be forced to go to the dance!
RAVEN
Darn it!
